"Conservative radio host Mark Levin said Democratic legislative overreach could drive residents out of Virginia.
"What's going to happen is the productive people in Virginia will begin to leave. A lot of people who believe in liberty will leave," Levin said during his radio show Friday night. "So you'll see depopulation, voluntary depopulation, like you see in New York, New Jersey, California, Illinois, on and on, where people are looking for liberty."
Virginia Democrats won a majority in both houses of the state's legislature and are aiming to address priorities such as increased gun-control measures. State Democrats withdrew a senate bill that would have effectively confiscated firearms like AR-15s.
Such measures have sparked public backlash and demonstrations from gun-rights activists. More protests are expected early next week.
"These issues of the Second Amendment, the First Amendment, property rights," said Levin, "it's not about being a ‘right-winger.' It's about liberty…. People will look for freedom. It's like water finding cracks. But this is how it works, and this is the problem."
Levin also warned about a decline in civic knowledge.
"The principles upon which this nation was founded are not taught, they're not promoted, they're not embraced," he said. "A country cannot survive on its founding principles if its founding principles are not indoctrinated into one generation after the next."

My worry is that Northam and the Democrats robbing Virginians of their 2A rights, their First Amendment rights, and their property rights is a continuation of what Progressives are attacking middle America with on federal and state levels across the nation.
Depopulation will occur but is insufficient. We must educate our children and our adults to stand and fight back, based on civic knowledge and a historical appreciation of the American Way, and legal underpinnings from the Founders that made this remarkable constitutional republic what it is, and the envy of the world.
As states like Virginia turn purple or even blue, retreating to red states will not suffice. We must fight in all 50 states to push back the Progressive drive to transform America fundamentally into Ameritopia.
